How Mazars in Slovakia achieved EcoVadis top 15% ranking and demonstrated its commitment to sustainability

EcoVadis consists of a complex assessment based on detailed questionnaire that measures a company's environmental, social, and governance performance. Learn more about our journey to EcoVadis' Silver Medal.

This standard is becoming increasingly important for companies seeking to reduce their environmental impact and promote sustainable business practices. Mazars in Slovakia is proud to have achieved the Ecovadis recognition to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability.

The journey and its obstacles

However, an exceptional EcoVadis ranking can be difficult to achieve, with several potential blocking points. It is important to understand the obstacles which can arise when implementing the standards and the benefits it can bring to the company.

  • First, the standard is very strict on sustainability, which means the company must show that it has strong environmental, social and ethical policies in place.
  • Secondly, the company must be able to demonstrate that these policies are implemented consistently throughout the organization.
  • Finally, the company must provide evidence of the environmental, social, and ethical performance of its organization, which can be difficult to measure.

What is the added value

With the Silver Medal, Mazars will be able to help clients and business partners improve their operations and become more sustainable. Indeed, Mazars can now in turn provide support in EcoVadis readiness to business partners and clients wishing to undergo the same assessment.

The four categories analyzed

  • Environment
  • Labour and human rights
  • Ethics
  • Sustainable procurement

Thanks to an action plan, we will be able to continue to improve on these four criteria and pass the EcoVadis assessment again in the future, with the hope of proving our sustainability and relevance in today's labour market with a new medal.
